About this map

Richton serves as the primary hub of this Perry County landscape, where a dense grid of streets like Gertrude St and Mulberry Ave centers around the local industry and aviation at the Richton-Perry County Airport. The surrounding terrain is defined by the winding paths of Thompson Creek and Bogue Homo, which dictate the placement of smaller outlying settlements such as East Side and Hintonville.

For genealogists and local historians, the map provides a clear record of family and community landmarks, including Sunset Cem, Browns Cem, and Isaiah Hinton Cem. The spatial relationship between the East Side Church and its namesake settlement highlights the traditional community structures of the area. Further south, the rural settlement of McSwain sits near the headwaters of Mill Creek, illustrating the long-standing agricultural and timber-based layout of southeastern Mississippi.
